"Why! Why did you have to do this!" Lu Jinjin’s eyes brimd with tears, her gaze on Ji Yebai desperate and indignant, "Brother Yebai, doing this will destroy our Lu family, destroy my aunt’s!"
Her makeup smudged, Lu Qinghe’s clothes were disheveled, her hair bun had co undone, both won looked utterly disheveled.
Ning Xixi let out a light snort, her eyes void of sympathy for the two of them, "When Ning Corporation was on the brink of collapse, the Lu family took Ning’s designs, plagiarized them, sold them, and profited from them. Did you ever stop to think that you could destroy Ning Corporation? No, you didn’t. You enjoyed the adulation, the fa, the money. Now we’re just returning the favor. You’ve brought this upon yourselves; you’ve no one else to bla!"
Lu Jinjin cried out in resentnt: "Can’t you design? You could have designed more works for Ning Corporation! Why did you have to drag the Lu family down as a cushion? Ning Xixi, you’re just malicious at heart, jealous of us living well!"
Listening to her face as thick as a basin’s logic, Ning Xixi only felt the urge to scoff.
So it seems they’re suggesting that it’s all her fault, and that the Lu family is as pure as a white lotus rising unstained from the mud, untouched and unsullied?
Ji Yebai looked down at her like an emperor, "Miss Lu, this young master would remind you that the halo the outside world has given you these past days belongs to Ning Xixi, not you! Stealing from others, you’ll eventually have to pay it back!"
Lu Jinjin muttered to herself, "No... no..."
That feeling of falling from the clouds to the abyss, it really hurts!
She was clearly a genius designer!
It’s all Ning Xixi’s fault, if not for her exposing the truth, how would everyone know?
She wanted to say more, but Ji Yebai waved his hand impatiently. The bodyguards obeyed the command, dragging her and Lu Qinghe out without further ado.
The scene fell silent; after a mont, soone took the initiative to approach Ning Xixi, smiling brighter than a chrysanthemum, "I wonder if Miss Ning would be interested in collaborating with our He Corporation? Just provide us with your designs, and the price is negotiable! Quite negotiable!"
Others slled the opportunity and crowded around.
Ji Yebai protectively pulled Ning Xixi into his arms, his voice haughty, "Do you not realize that you’re being noisy? If you scare my fiancée, will you take responsibility?"
His presence was chilling, the crowd fell silent in an instant, everyone’s lips sealed tight, breathing lightened, afraid that even the slightest sound would anger this powerful Second Young Master Ji.
Song Zhiyang spoke with a welcoming smile, "Let’s talk business with . As of today, I’ll be taking on the temporary role of acting President of Ning Corporation." He turned his head to glance at Ning Xixi, "Sister, you don’t mind, do you?"
"Not at all, not at all!" Ning Xixi shook her head fiercely.
Song Zhiyang was truly a godsend! Ning Corporation was in shambles, him willing to help was sothing Ning Xixi couldn’t even begin to express gratitude for.
"Yebai, take her ho. Design work is brain-draining, let her rest well."
Ji Yebai nodded and led Ning Xixi away.
...
As the two of them took the elevator to the lobby, a familiar voice echoed from afar:
"Ying ying ying! Brother Ji! Sister-in-law! Please save !"
Who else could make such a "ying ying ying" sound but Xiao Xichen?
Ning Xixi looked at him helplessly, "What happened to you?"
"It’s a long story, sister-in-law, can you lend Ji Yebai for a sec?" Xiao Xichen grabbed Ji Yebai and zood away like a whirlwind.
